I think this game also has Kevin Millar (Anthony Freese, Red Sox) and Barry Bonds (I forget his name, but you can find him on the Giants)

Gosh, it's been a while, but this log is bringing back the nostalgia.

Zero, I think I'm going to leave those players' names as they are, because I don't think they're intended to represent the players you mentioned (although they do fill their spots). Also, I like the name "Michael-Sea Morgan".

And Zumi, yeah, Jon Dowd is Barry's in-game name.

Wish I could get that game. Said to be the best modern baseball game and I'm sure I'd have a blast figuring out all the fake names.

The Rockies bunted their way to victory over the Diamondbacks on Monday, with every player being credited with a sacrifice. Matt Holliday homered in his return from suspension, and Todd Helton went deep as well. The win puts the Rockies at 5-7. They'll face off against the Diamondbacks again tomorrow, then fly to Philadelphia for a two-game set against the Phillies.

Tensions Run High in Los Angeles
April 29th, 2005

In the seventh inning of the Colorado Rockies' match-up against the Dodgers on Friday, Danny McKnight stepped to the plate. The rookie, who is batting over .300, has garnered a reputation for talking trash, and this showed in today's game as he exchanged words with Rockies starter Jeff Francis. After McKnight struck out for the third time in as many at-bats, Francis said something that clearly irked McKnight, as the latter nearly came charging out of the dugout but was restrained by Dodgers second baseman Jeff Kent. The Rockies went on to win the game by a score of 3 to 0.

Danny McKnight, being as lovely a person as ever.

Ooh, this log gon' be good.

Ok, thats fine with me.

Just a little of my own nit-picking-Could you specify whether its LAD or LAA?

And will you holla when you learn some of the created players on other teams have been called up? And mebbe their stats at end of year?

Sorry if I'm being too demanding...

Considering they're the Rockies and it's April, I'd say it's safe to assume it's LAD, but clarification in the future would be swaggin'.

Oh. Forgot how inter-league is only in July or whatever. My bad.

Well, the Angels were still Anaheim in this game, so they will be abbreviated as ANA.

And updates about the other players will definitely be made as they become relevant.

I like the deal. Adam Loewen was a pretty solid pitcher before he converted.

Awesome, thanks!

Nice trade too. And 12-11 is a solid record.

The game was tied heading into the ninth, but Adam Bernero quickly allowed a hit and a walk. John Franco then hit a deep home run to center, giving the Braves a 6-3 lead. Adam Loewen was then called upon to make his major league debut, and allowed a double and a single to score another run before striking out two to end the inning. The Rockies were then shut down in the ninth to give the Braves their 17th win.
